NTNU ranked 85th in Asia, up 2 places from last year

National Taiwan Normal University has been ranked number 85 in Asia -- an increase of two spots since last year -- by UK-based education ranking company Quacquarelli Symonds (QS).

This is the fifth consecutive year that QS has released a ranking concentrating on Asian universities. The numbers are determined by measuring a number of indicators, including each school's academic reputation, teacher-to-student ratio, faculty-published papers, and number of international students, among others.

QS last month named NTNU's Education program number 50 in the world in a global ranking.
